The Latin name for this plant is Rhoeo spathacaea. It is from the Commelinacaea family. An herb common in Mexico.
It is commonly known as Moses in a boat,Moses in the BUllrushes, Moses in a cradle, Boat Lily, Moses in a basket, or Oyster plant. Sometimes you will see it referred to as Rhoeo discolor too.
I have seen these in local home and garden centers, usually in early spring to early summer. The only one I found online was listed at $24.95 and I know they aren't that costly.
I have 3 of them, gifts from a dear friend. Keep looking! My best suggestion is to call or stop by your local Lowe's--they can special order it for you.
Tip: I would not buy any plant online that did not show a picture--not a drawing--of the actual plants.
Good luck!
